Why are retired people hurt by inflation?      

History

If you are retired, you do not have a source of income from a job--you rely on your savings, interest from investments, or the government (e.g., social security in the US). With a job, your salary typically increases every so often to track inflation. When you just have savings, the total value of your money stays the same while the purchasing power of that money decreases. Investment income on your savings (e.g., interest) counterbalances this effect somewhat and government programs typically give out more money to account for the effects of inflation, but neither of these counterbalancing measures may prove sufficient.

Answer:

Ther Great Compromise was an agreement reached between the representatives of states with small populations and their counterparts from states with large populations at the Constitutional Convention of 1787. It defined the structure of Congress. It was agreed that there would be a bicameral Congress, with one lower chamber (the House of Representatives) with proportional representation, and an upper chamber (the Senate) with two senators by each state. The agreement was brokered by Connecticut representative Roger Sherman, that´s why it is also called the Sherman Compromise.
